CAIRO, Egypt - A Saudi man U.S. officials want to question about his links to two of the Sept. 11 suicide hijackers said Sunday he is ready to talk, but only in his homeland and in the presence of officials from his government.

Al-Bayoumi, identified by the Americans as a Saudi civil aviation worker, worked with a Saudi government aviation official whose son's picture was found on a computer disk along with pictures of many of the 19 hijackers, most of whom came from Saudi Arabia, the report also said.

In addition, al-Bayoumi also indirectly received money from Princess Haifa al-Faisal, the wife of the Saudi ambassador in Washington Bandar bin Sultan, according to the report. Al Bayoumi challenged the U.S. authorities to produce evidence.

Al-Bayoumi left the United States two months before the Sept. 11, 2001 suicide hijackings to study in Britain. Al-Bayoumi said British and U.S. officials investigated him immediately after the terrorist attacks and released him. ---
